I have a bottle of this imported from Japan. It is an excellent Japanese whisky. It is a gold orange in color, nice and sweet, no harsh flavors at all. A very nice malt taste that is delicate and very smooth. You can taste the sherry in this bottle. The Suntory Royal line is excellent all around from the base SR to SR12 and this bottle of SR15. Both SR12 and SR15 were released in 97 and I am not positive if it is still produced today, but bottles are still accessible on occasion from Japan.
